Money in the sense you can use your LDOM configs to limit your exposure to licensing by physical resource limitations in the LDOM config (you can't do this with zones alone) and complexity in that it's essentially a double VM, or a VM running in a VM and all the complexity that brings add mounted storage from a SAN and you can see where it gets complicated very fast.
